Heart 2 Heart Birthday Color



One last card just under the wire for the Heart 2 Heart January challenges:  For this challenge you are assigned a color based on your birth month.  My birthday is in March which means I made a card featuring Thistle, one of Close to My heart's new colors.  I need a sympathy card for a friend from my church, so it was a no brainer for me to go to the "Look to the Light" stamp set for a comforting Bible verse and my favorite stamp, the butterfly from the retired "Find Your Style" set.  I inked it up with Thistle and Whisper using sponger daubers and after cutting out the image sponged a little black along the edges of the wing.  I embellished with black sparkles and CTMH's new White shimmer trim.

I used this Freshly Made Sketch for the layout:



Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time, Hansi
